LOL! Doesn’t always come out how you want it to!! LOL!! Here’s the comment and passage again:
To all,
GOD BLESS US ALL!!!
In this world, where many things “ seem” like they are happening, we feel forced to feel we have to be a part of it. We are born here and our flesh dies here, but, our spirit moves on.
So, in that case, should we really worry about what is here??
we worry of a world that we are praying about to change ( and the people in it)?
Should we worry about a world that we are not waiting for? Should we worry of a world we truly do not want to be a part of??
We are waiting for heaven?? To be with our Father, yes? or no?
Today, these are questions to think about. Do not let this world bother you .
We know that JESUS cared for us, and lived to prepare us for the message and destination of heaven. Though HE knows we lived here, HE always told us of heaven.
Leaving us with words like: Be in the world and not in the world.
Telling us the greatest commandments are: 1. Love GOD with all your heart. 2. Love thy neighbor as thyself.
Seems strange to live here and not “ live “here. But, this is what all the prophets, saints, and Jesus do and did every day. Many of us do the same now. It’s a way of living to keep your heart fixed on GOD, eyes set on the walk of Jesus, and ears pitched to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Walking around in the joy of clarity of Spirit, and not trapped in the mechanisms of flesh. Yet, knowing at one point in your life you were. Yet, knowing now that your “ new life” in GOD is about being a light in your “ new flesh” to show people still in their “ old flesh” how to get out of that “ old flesh” to live in a “ new flesh” for a new world to come; HEAVEN!!
LOVE TO ALL!
Please pray the LORD’s PRAYER and please read:
PHILIPPIANS 1:12-30
12 Now I want you to realise, brothers, that the circumstances of my present life are helping rather than hindering the advance of the gospel.
13 My chains in Christ have become well known not only to all the Praetorium, but to everybody else,
14 and so most of the brothers in the Lord have gained confidence from my chains and are getting more and more daring in announcing the Message without any fear.
15 It is true that some of them are preaching Christ out of malice and rivalry; but there are many as well whose intentions are good;
16 some are doing it out of love, knowing that I remain firm in my defence of the gospel.
17 There are others who are proclaiming Christ out of jealousy, not in sincerity but meaning to add to the weight of my chains.
18 But what does it matter? Only that in both ways, whether with false motives or true, Christ is proclaimed, and for that I am happy;
19 and I shall go on being happy, too, because I know that this is what will save me, with your prayers and with the support of the Spirit of Jesus Christ;
20 all in accordance with my most confident hope and trust that I shall never have to admit defeat, but with complete fearlessness I shall go on, so that now, as always, Christ will be glorified in my body, whether by my life or my death.
21 Life to me, of course, is Christ, but then death would be a positive gain.
22 On the other hand again, if to be alive in the body gives me an opportunity for fruitful work, I do not know which I should choose.
23 I am caught in this dilemma: I want to be gone and to be with Christ, and this is by far the stronger desire-
24 and yet for your sake to stay alive in this body is a more urgent need.
25 This much I know for certain, that I shall stay and stand by you all, to encourage your advance and your joy in the faith,
26 so that my return to be among you may increase to overflowing your pride in Jesus Christ on my account.
27 But you must always behave in a way that is worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come to you and see for myself or whether I only hear all about you from a distance, I shall find that you are standing firm and united in spirit, battling, as a team with a single aim, for the faith of the gospel.
28 undismayed by any of your opponents. This will be a clear sign, for them that they are to be lost, and for you that you are to be saved.
29 This comes from God, for you have been granted the privilege for Christ’s sake not only of believing in him but of suffering for him as well;
30 you are fighting the same battle which you saw me fighting for him and which you hear I am fighting still
Praise JESUS,
Jesus4life
Yea, well there’s one caveat; Love your “Christian” neighbor as yourself. Keep the rest at arms length.
